Isaiah 66
Maori Bible
66 Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Ko te rangi toku torona, ko te whenua toku turanga waewae: kei hea te whare ka hanga nei e koutou moku? kei hea hoki te wahi hei okiokinga moku?
2 Ko enei mea katoa hoki he mea hanga na toku ringa, a na kona enei mea katoa i oti ai, e ai ta Ihowa; ko tenei ia taku e titiro ai, ko te tangata e iti ana, kua maru te wairua, a e wiri ana ki taku kupu.
3 Ko te tangata e patu ana i te kau, me te mea e tukituki ana i te tangata; te tangata he reme nei tana patunga tapu, me te mea he kaki kuri e poutoa ana e ia; te tangata e whakaeke ana i te whakahere, me te mea e whakaeke ana i te toto poaka; te t angata e tahu ana i te whakakakara, me te mea e manaaki ana i te whakapakoko. Ae ra, kua whiriwhiria e ratou o ratou ara, e ahuareka ana hoki to ratou wairua ki a ratou mea whakarihariha.
4 Ka whiriwhiria ano e ahau o ratou whakaaro horihori, a ka kawea a ratou i wehi ai ki runga ki a ratou; no te mea i karanga ahau, a kihai tetahi i whakao mai, i korero ahau, a kihai ratou i rongo; heoi mahia ana e ratou te kino i taku tirohanga, a whiriwhiria ana e ratou te mea kihai i paingia e ahau.
5 Whakarongo ki te kupu a Ihowa, e te hunga e wiri ana ki tana kupu; Ko o koutou tuakana i kino ra ki a koutou, i pei ra i a koutou, he whakaaro ki toku ingoa, i mea, Kia whakakororiatia a Ihowa, kia kite hoki matou i to koutou koa; na ka whakama r atou.
6 He reo, he ngangau, kei te pa, he reo kei te temepara, ko te reo o Ihowa e whakautu ana i ona hoariri.
7 Kiano ia i whakamamae, kua whanau; kiano i pa ona mamae, kua whanau he tane.
8 Ko wai i rongo i te penei? ko wai i kite i nga mea penei? E whakamamae ranei te whenua i te ra kotahi? e whanau ranei te iwi i te meatanga kotahi? whakamamae kau hoki a Hiona, kua whanau ana tama.
9 Tera ranei e meinga e ahau kia taka te ara, a kia kaua e whanau? e ai ta Ihowa; ka meinga ranei e ahau kia whanau, a kopia iho te kopu? e ai ta tou Atua.
10 Kia koa tahi me Hiruharama, whakamanamana ki a ia, e te hunga katoa e aroha ana ki a ia; kia hari tahi me ia, kia hari, e te hunga katoa e tangi ana ki a ia.
11 He mea hoki ka ngote koutou, a ka makona i te u, ara i ana whakamarie, he mea hoki ka whakatete koutou, a ka ora te ngakau i te nui o tona kororia.
12 Ko te kupu hoki tenei a Ihowa, Nana, ano he awa te rangimarie ka horahia atu e ahau ki a ia; ano he waipuke te kororia o nga tauiwi: ko reira koutou ngote ai; ka hikitia koutou ki ona kaokao, ka poipoia ki ona turi.
13 Ka rite hoki ki te tangata e whakamarietia ana e tona whaea, ka whakamarie ano ahau ki a koutou; ka whai whakamarietanga ano koutou i roto i Huriharama.
14 Ka kite koutou i tenei, ka koa o koutou ngakau; ko o koutou whenua, koia ano kei te otaota te tupu; a ka mohiotia te ringa o Ihowa ki ana pononga, tona riri ki ona hoariri.
15 Nana, ka haere mai a Ihowa me te ahi, ko ona hariata koia ano kei te tukauati; ki te tuku i tona riri i runga i te weriweri, i tana whakatupehupehu i roto i nga mura ahi.
16 No te mea he ahi ta Ihowa, me tana hoari ano, ina totohe ia ki nga kikokiko katoa, ka tokomaha ano nga tupapaku a Ihowa.
17 Ko te hunga e whakatapu ana i a ratou, e pure ana i a ratou i nga kari, e whai ana i tetahi i waenganui, ko te hunga e kai ana i te kikokiko poaka, i te mea whakarihariha, i te kiore, ka pau ngatahi ratou, e ai ta Ihowa.
18 E mohio ana hoki ahau ki a ratou mahi, ki o ratou whakaaro. Tenei ake ka huihuia e ahau nga iwi katoa, nga reo, a ka haere mai ratou, ka kite i toku kororia.
19 Ka meinga ano e ahau he tohu ki roto i a ratou, ka unga ano e ahau o ratou morehu ki nga iwi, ki Tarahihi, ki Puru, ki Ruru, ki te hunga kukume kopere, ki Tupara, ki Iawana, ki nga motu i tawhiti kihai nei i rongo ki toku rongo, kihai ano i kite i toku kororia; a ka whakaaturia e ratou toku kororia i roto i nga tauiwi.
20 Ka kawea mai ano e ratou o koutou teina katoa i roto i nga iwi katoa hei whakahere ki a Ihowa, i runga i te hoiho, i te hariata, i te amo, i te muera, i te kamera tere, ki toku maunga tapu ki Hiruharama, e ai ta Ihowa; ka rite ki ta nga tama a I haraira e kawe nei i te whakahere i roto i te oko ma ki te whare o Ihowa.
21 Ka tango hoki ahau i etahi o ratou hei tohunga, hei Riwaiti, e ai ta Ihowa.
22 Ka rite hoki ki te rangi hou, ki te whenua hou, ka hanga nei e ahau, a ka pumau tonu ki toku aroaro, e ai ta Ihowa, ka pera te pumau o to koutou uri, o to koutou ingoa.
23 A tenei ake ka haere mai nga kikokiko katoa i tenei marama, i tenei marama, i tenei hapati, i tenei hapati, ki te koropiko ki toku aroaro, e ai ta Ihowa.
24 A ka haere atu ratou, ka matakitaki ki nga tinana o nga tangata i he nei ki ahau: e kore hoki to ratou kutukutu e mate, e kore ano to ratou ahi e tineia, a hei mea whakarihariha ratou ki nga kikokiko katoa.

New International Version
Judgment and Hope
66 This is what the Lord says:
“Heaven is my throne,(A)
and the earth is my footstool.(B)
Where is the house(C) you will build for me?
Where will my resting place be?
2 Has not my hand made all these things,(D)
and so they came into being?”
declares the Lord.
“These are the ones I look on with favor:
those who are humble and contrite in spirit,(E)
and who tremble at my word.(F)
3 But whoever sacrifices a bull(G)
is like one who kills a person,
and whoever offers a lamb
is like one who breaks a dog’s neck;
whoever makes a grain offering
is like one who presents pig’s(H) blood,
and whoever burns memorial incense(I)
is like one who worships an idol.
They have chosen their own ways,(J)
and they delight in their abominations;(K)
4 so I also will choose harsh treatment for them
and will bring on them what they dread.(L)
For when I called, no one answered,(M)
when I spoke, no one listened.
They did evil(N) in my sight
and chose what displeases me.”(O)
5 Hear the word of the Lord,
you who tremble at his word:(P)
“Your own people who hate(Q) you,
and exclude you because of my name, have said,
‘Let the Lord be glorified,
that we may see your joy!’
Yet they will be put to shame.(R)
6 Hear that uproar from the city,
hear that noise from the temple!
It is the sound(S) of the Lord
repaying(T) his enemies all they deserve.
7 “Before she goes into labor,(U)
she gives birth;
before the pains come upon her,
she delivers a son.(V)
8 Who has ever heard of such things?
Who has ever seen(W) things like this?
Can a country be born in a day(X)
or a nation be brought forth in a moment?
Yet no sooner is Zion in labor
than she gives birth to her children.(Y)
9 Do I bring to the moment of birth(Z)
and not give delivery?” says the Lord.
“Do I close up the womb
when I bring to delivery?” says your God.
10 “Rejoice(AA) with Jerusalem and be glad for her,
all you who love(AB) her;
rejoice greatly with her,
all you who mourn(AC) over her.
11 For you will nurse(AD) and be satisfied
at her comforting breasts;(AE)
you will drink deeply
and delight in her overflowing abundance.”(AF)
12 For this is what the Lord says:
“I will extend peace(AG) to her like a river,(AH)
and the wealth(AI) of nations like a flooding stream;
you will nurse and be carried(AJ) on her arm
and dandled on her knees.
13 As a mother comforts her child,(AK)
so will I comfort(AL) you;
and you will be comforted over Jerusalem.”
14 When you see this, your heart will rejoice(AM)
and you will flourish(AN) like grass;
the hand(AO) of the Lord will be made known to his servants,(AP)
but his fury(AQ) will be shown to his foes.
15 See, the Lord is coming with fire,(AR)
and his chariots(AS) are like a whirlwind;(AT)
he will bring down his anger with fury,
and his rebuke(AU) with flames of fire.
16 For with fire(AV) and with his sword(AW)
the Lord will execute judgment(AX) on all people,
and many will be those slain(AY) by the Lord.
17 “Those who consecrate and purify themselves to go into the gardens,(AZ) following one who is among those who eat the flesh of pigs,(BA) rats(BB) and other unclean things—they will meet their end(BC) together with the one they follow,” declares the Lord.
18 “And I, because of what they have planned and done,(BD) am about to come[a] and gather the people of all nations(BE) and languages, and they will come and see my glory.(BF)
19 “I will set a sign(BG) among them, and I will send some of those who survive(BH) to the nations—to Tarshish,(BI) to the Libyans[b] and Lydians(BJ) (famous as archers), to Tubal(BK) and Greece,(BL) and to the distant islands(BM) that have not heard of my fame or seen my glory.(BN) They will proclaim my glory among the nations. 20 And they will bring(BO) all your people, from all the nations, to my holy mountain(BP) in Jerusalem as an offering to the Lord—on horses, in chariots and wagons, and on mules and camels,”(BQ) says the Lord. “They will bring them, as the Israelites bring their grain offerings, to the temple of the Lord in ceremonially clean vessels.(BR) 21 And I will select some of them also to be priests(BS) and Levites,” says the Lord.
22 “As the new heavens and the new earth(BT) that I make will endure before me,” declares the Lord, “so will your name and descendants endure.(BU) 23 From one New Moon to another and from one Sabbath(BV) to another, all mankind will come and bow down(BW) before me,” says the Lord. 24 “And they will go out and look on the dead bodies(BX) of those who rebelled(BY) against me; the worms(BZ) that eat them will not die, the fire that burns them will not be quenched,(CA) and they will be loathsome to all mankind.”
